Practical approaches for online care

Latoya commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thought patterns and try different behaviors. CBT often involves setting small goals, testing new actions, and tracking changes, which can suit worries, depression, and stress.

She also uses Client-Centered Therapy to provide a listening-focused space where the client's priorities guide the work. This approach supports people who need validation, clearer self-understanding, and steady emotional support.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Latoya will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and what feels most useful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care more flexible. Video calls allow full conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat is useful for shorter check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options help fit therapy into work, school, or caregiving schedules while keeping focus on practical steps and progress.
